Football: Manchester City has narrowly avoided being eliminated from the group stages of the Champions League, following their 3-1 win over Club Brugge
Manchester City gave their fans an almighty scare but ultimately got the job done to advance to the knockout stage, while Premier League outfits Liverpool, Arsenal and Aston Villa all booked a top eight spot and automatic passage to the Champions League ’s Round of 16.
Raphael Onyedika slammed home the opener in the 45th minute after a brilliant cut back from Ferran Jutgla as Pep Guardiola’s side failed to register a single shot on target in the first half. Their English rivals all progressed meanwhile, with Liverpool hanging onto first place despite losing 3-2 away to Dutch outfit PSV.
It was an engrossing contest but with Liverpool’s place in the top eight secure and PSV holding firmly onto their lead to ensure their place in the knockouts, a bit of the sting went out of the game in the second half despite Reds 18-year-old debutant Amara Nallo being shown a straight red card for a clumsy challenge after coming off the bench.
